    It is unlawful for any manufacturer or other seller to represent, on 
a label on a container of processed used oil, that such oil is 
substantially equivalent to new oil for use as engine oil unless the 
manufacturer or other seller has based such representation on the 
manufacturer's determination that the processed used oil is 
substantially equivalent to new oil for use as engine oil in accordance 
with the NIST test procedures prescribed under Sec. 311.4 of this part. 
Violations will be subject to enforcement through civil penalties (as 
adjusted for inflation pursuant to Sec. 1.98 of this chapter),
